1st in voting for punters after being snubbed last year.

That is weird considering he is struggling this year.

You're voted in, it's not based on stats.

And while his punt depth hasn't been great this year, he's still pinning teams inside the 20 regularly.

MVP of the Cards in 2010 is #36...luv the little guy thats says alot of the sad, sad season the Redbirds are having.

True dat.

I'll bet a lot of people missed this little tidbit in Somer's blog from Sunday night:

One position the Cardinals won't need next year is kicker. Jay Feely has missed only once all year. I expect them to try and upgrade at punter, however.

Very interesting.

Do we now add Graham to the lengthening list of players whose performance level has dropped off drastically from the last two seasons?

What the heck is going on?!?!

It's the curse of having this on the side of the helmet.



Who else could have a who's who list of players who leave & become stars elsewhere? We've given or let enough good players to start another league.

MacArthur Lane, Aeneas Williams, Ken Harvey, Simeon Rice, Dave Butz, Pat Fischer, Garrison Hearst, Thomas Jones, Norn Thompson, Ahmad Rashad, OJ Anderson, Leonard Smith, Tim McDonald, Lionel washington, Jay Novacek, Ricky Proel, Jamir Miller, Larry Centers, Boldin, KVB just to name a few.

The cycle I'm afraid is continuing...up next #15 & #11

For some reason, I can never get interested in special team players who go to the Pro Bowl.

awful teams get thrown a bone with a punter or kicker pro bowl.

Bucky, did you overlook that DA might be gone like #11 and 15?

I did when Via Sikahema played. Loved watching that guy.

First Tongan to ever play in the NFL.
